Hello everyone!
As most of us are already known to this, Nothing 2a sucks big time when it comes to displaying HDR content. The users have reported issues like color bleeding, visible pixel tear and noise and colors turning oversaturated. This is explained with great details and insights in this turkish Nothing forum: Nothing Phone (2a) HDR Video Playback Problem do check it out (translate the webpage).
following up, recently he was able to get some support through the service centre. they told him that the issue is caused by BOE displays a lot of NP2a’s use. during the comparison between BOE display and VisionOX display under normal stock android settings, the BOE display felt warmer and it was like yellowish orange in tone. There was a visible noise and the colors were weird. I have attached the video images below:
Also, the basic colors under this area were completely different!
Not to forget, upon testing with 4 users, all the BOE display users faced the exact similar issue. This is a huge negative user experience because it makes watching any kind of content a nightmare. its the most basic of things. this needs to be fixed. Nothing needs to step up and take the responsibility.
Note: unedited video footage of the experience at the service centre is available if Nothing wants it.
You’re welcome to share your opinion and experiences. Thanks and regards!
